A role for unsaturated fatty acids in mitochondrial movement and inheritance.

Abstract excerpt

Yeast cells with the mdm2 mutation display temperature-sensitive growth and defective intracellular mitochondrial movement at the non-permissive temperature. The latter phenotype includes both an absence of mitochondrial transfer into daughter buds of mitotically growing cells and an aberrant mitochondrial distribution in cells exposed to mating pheromone. The wild-type MDM2 gene was cloned by complementation,...
